Light, crisp, refreshing UFO White follows in the tradition of spiced wheat beers that have been brewed in Belgium for well over 300 years. Brewed with orange peel and coriander, UFO White is the perfect choice for a summer’s barbecue, a night out with friends or any time you're thirsting for something a little different. Like all UFO beers, we leave UFO White UnFiltered.

Bottled. An unclear light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of oranges, wheat, and coriander. The flavor is sweet with notes of oranges, wheat, and coriander, leading to a dry finish. The body is light. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle (thanx to jonas!): Yellow to orangey coloured, cloudy, stable off-white froth; distinctive orangey-wheaty nose with traces of - presumably - coriander; light to moderate sweetish-sourish flavour, light bodied and relatively soft; slightly lingering fruity-wheaty finish including traces of coriander and wheat, followed by a light bitterness in the aftertaste. Refreshing, but pretty tame.....

(bottle, 35.5cl) Cloudy, orange-golden colour with a collapsing small frothy white head. Slightly sweet and yeasty wheaty aroma with a pronounced fruit-character of citrus, especially oranges and a mildly spicy touch of coriander. Slightly sweet flavour, light bodied with a lively carbonation. Wheaty and coriander-spicy taste with present fruity notes; slim fruity and wheaty finish with bearable spicy notes. Rather unexciting but refreshing. 21.II.11

Refrigerated bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours clear yellow with medium white head that dissapates fast. Good carbonation, no lacing, and light body. Taste is wheat, orange, coriander, and light lemon.

Bottle. Light soapy coriander aroma. Cloudy yellow, lacing white head. lightbodied, mellow mouthfeel. Papery malt, lemon, light milk strangely enough.

12 oz bottle poured into a Weizen glass. Cloudy light golden with a dense white head. Lightly wheaty aroma- very citrusy- no spice presence- just apparent sweet orange peel, but it’s inviting. Garnish with a orange, Papery wheat notes and later residual sugars. No spice presence or bitterness.For it’s style, I would say it is real average.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a very cloudy yellow-golden color with a large foamy yellow white head that lingered. The aroma was tangy lemon, orange and faint vague spices - but overall quite pleasant. The flavor was dry and musty with a bit of cardboard, pepper, coriander and lemon. The finish was medium length dry, must and citrus. Medium body. Decent.

not a bad version of a white ale, just nothing special. probably pretty good after a hot day on the beach, but as a regular, everyday beer, this one lacks any chracteristics that would make it stand out from all the other wit’s out there. Harpoon needs to step it up if they are going to be anything more than Sam Adams little brother here in New England.

MET supermarket ($10): Pours a cloudy pale yellow but darker than other witbiers. Has a white head. Fruity and spicy aroma. Banana not really all up in the forefront as it is in other wits. A little bit watery, but has still enough taste to be enjoyable. Spices, especially cloves, are the most prominent tastes. Slight citrus aspect. Ambiguous fruitiness. Not too bad.
